Seriously we used to be great from set plays under moyes now we r terrible 13 corners tonite never looked like scoring need to be doing much better from corners and free kicks
1.) I was thinking exactly the same thing whilst watching the game, we just don't look dangerous from set plays. Given how many corners we win it's something that needs to be worked on.
2.) Here's a thought.
Wenger is criticised for being stubborn - not having a plan B - and insisting on Arsenal always playing his way.
Could it be that RM is showing similar resolve to have Everton play his way, which is great in open play, but sometimes we might need to adapt to the opposition (or the score) during the match and try some variation. Likewise, as the original poster commented, we've been poor too often this season at set pieces - both offensively and defensively - apart from penalties and some other direct free kicks. There's no shame in scoring a headed goal from a corner or free kick rather than just from exquisite open play every time (all goals count don't they) - just as it's effective play to make a good clearing header when defending a corner or free kick.
I love the expansive passing game that RM has introduced, but there are occasions when a little variation wouldn't go amiss in my humble opinion.
3.) Have we scored from a corner once this year?
{Ed025's Note - i can only remember the one against liverpool BT..
4.) You lot could always Begg moyes to come back we won't score as many open play goals but hay maybe we will start from corners. Some of these posts are stupid all because we lost to palace. We are a work in progress under Roberto

Cannot understand why he put mc carthy on the bench shocking decision cost us hope spurs beat us to europa league now although there's probably 6 teams getting into it that would be a disaster to get into. Think wengers mind games got to roberto mind u the way west ham played lastnite we might as well give up now jarvis has a chance to earn a penalty and decides to be a saint that's why he's playin at west ham and as for andy carroll what a waste of space what a tube can't defend and can't score enough said absolutely GUTTED

Former Everton star Tim Cahill (@Tim_Cahill) is understandably upset by the result: "That cross needs to be headed away. We can't keep saying we were unlucky. We were the better team. Can't play without a striker. #gutted #COYB"

Is it just me or is david james the biggest joke of a pundit ever and believe me there r some bad 1s he is so anti everton that I get embaressed for him every chance he gets he has a pop at everton he can't help but be negative about them its nearly like second nature now yet when he talks bout lfc he bums and blows bout them no matter how bad they r so so irritating ahhhhhhh

Thought naismith worked hard today he would be a good playin up wid lukaku finds space very easy an intelligent player needs a run of games
Hes too old simples
Problem was we have to stick with lukaku week in week out because no traore and no kone feel for lukaku still a young lad still learning
Agree QB was thinkin same thing myself anelka would be a crackin bit if business to have him for 5 or 6 games would be a real coup he nos how to score goals worth a punt short term deal
{Ed025's Note - i have to say, i dont want him, i applaud WBA for doing the right thing, people like him dont deserve to earn top money, extremism in any form should be swerved IMO, but maybe some dont agree..
Cant catch a break at the minute with forwards
We have to give him a chance to get his style of football right yes there r things that need to be fixed but bearing in mind I thought we would struggle in his first season it has gone well we'll be far better next season and yes rodgers took a couple of seasons to get to were lfc r now there still a few twists to come yet it could all change again on tues and weds
